Cash-out refinancing is another option.† It allows homeowners who want to leverage their home's equity as cash to invest in things like home improvements or college tuition.† Cash-out refinancing can also be a way to consolidate debt, since you can tap into your home's equity and use the cash to pay down car loans, credit card debt, or medical bills.^ Mr. Cooper in Albany can help you learn more about refinancing and choose the right refinance option for your situation.
